Education Psychology
Article Reflection #1
Its not just the principal who makes the school personel strong, it's the parents to in my opinion. Yes, a principal is to be there for all the teachers for guidance and support. Not all kids are disrespectful and rude, there are kind and well rounded kids too! In order to have a successful school and great teachers, well there already great, but even better is having a principal who cares about the teachers and students. A great principal comes with a great philosophy. They have there set ways to help there colleagues. When there philosophy of being a principal is strong, a discipiline plan comes along with that too.
If a school does not have a discipline plan, there will be many problems for example, bad attitudes, volgar languages, fighting, vandalizing and bullying. When a principal offers support and guidance things begin to change. Teachers will better understand how to handle certain situations. They will not possibly "hate" their job, question themselves "why did I ever decide to teach?" , or leave the field of education. When they have a principal who cares it makes the life of teaching easier for a teacher who is struggling.
Pros-
With a good principal there are attitude changes, a better school atmosphere and children begin to change in a good way. Parents are appt to become more involved and want to know how their child is doing in school.
Moving on....
The color of ones skin shouldn't matter at all about what their eduction might entail in the future. There are trends and beliefs with each culture and usually they keep the trend going. No one should make inferences on ones life choices according to skin.
Yes, administration, parents, teachers, individual self, and society are four critical agent to shape an individual education and attitude toward life. I am glad to hear your reflection about the teaching attitude for the diverse learners--this research provides us the reflection of how teachers need to be cautioned of the stereotype and response/reaction for the specific ethnic groups.
